Title: Stack BTC and earn BTG
Post by: Nilssou on October 01, 2017, 09:48:08 AM
Hi everyone,

I saw that BTC will have a new hardfork named BTG and I read that we can earn BTG by holding some BTC.

So my question is how its working ? which wallet ? woot ?

Thanks in advance

This news was posted via Twitter. Search the tag #btgold1025 -- this was the originally posted Sep. 24 as follows:

" Bitcoin Gold‏ @btcgpu Sep 24 One month until #bgold exodus fork. Hodl BTC on 10.25 get free BTG on 11.1 #bgold1025 #blockchainQE #bitcoin "

They reference the fork and free BTG in association with Exodus wallets which can be obtained here: https://www.exodus.io/

If you mean airdrop then you have to check if legit or not

Well technically it is not an airdrop but a fork. And how would it not be legit if they do it based off snapshot on blockchain?

please post some resource for us to be able to confirm. as of now, it is all speculation.

Not speculation it has been well known on BCT for a week now and I have known slightly longer. A simple google search gives you all information needed.

As long as you hold the private key you're fine.
But seems lite blockchain might support Bitcoin Cash soon so it might be same for BTG...

EDIT: Can post links it seems, but google for blockchain and bitcoin cash and you'll find what I was talking about.

It's a good question.

How it works? Bitcoin Gold will be airdropped to anyone owning Bitcoin (private keys) at the specified date and time in November. Only people who own private keys will be able to collect and redeem the Bitcoin Gold airdropped to that private key.

As for which wallet, it depends. Most wallets aren't talking talking about how they'll handle it yet. They'll start making decisions once we get into November. Some wallets will honor Bitcoin Gold, some won't. Exchanges are most likely not to (they have the option since they own the private key for the bitcoin owed to their customer's accounts.) If you have a hardware wallet with private keys, you will be able to claim the Bitcoin Gold...guaranteed.

is it true? can you specify where did you get that news? about a new hard fork BTG? I didn't read any news like that, so we can check if its true or not. or maybe this is a new frank/strategy of the big whales in the market who wants to increase the price of btc in rush and by holding and buying some btc so the btc price will pump in rush by the end of this year, I hope its not.

You need your private keys.
If you have your "seed" you will not have any problem claiming your BTG. There's not information about what wallets will support the fork but if you have your keys, you have the total control of your bitcoins and YOU will be able to claim your new BTG.
